S8UL Esports is listed here for one checked reason: Team SouL, the BGMI lineup, competes under that parent group. Liquipedia's Team SouL page says so, and TalkEsport's roster page says the same thing in fewer words. This is not a history of S8UL's other games, creators or companies. Those topics are outside the sources used for PUBG Mobile Pedia, and a paragraph about them would be copied colour rather than a fact this site can stand behind.
The BGMI team page is the right place for the scores. SouL won BGIS 2026 on 173 points under the printed name iQOOSOUL. They placed third in the BMSD 2026 semi-finals on 137 points, then won the BMSD 2026 Grand Finals in Hyderabad with 155 points. The iQOO wording is a sponsor line on KRAFTON's leaderboard, not a second organization. S8UL is the group. Team SouL is the lineup. iQOO, on that one board, is a prefix.
Staff named in public competitive listings are limited here to coach Ayogi, who appears on the October roster note, and to the five players linked below. A manager has been named in passing on a reference wiki. This page does not repeat a staff biography from that wiki. Player pages exist only for the five names on the 2 October roster, because those are the names tied to roles.
Other BMSD finalists do not get an organization page beside their team page. GodLike, 8Bit, K9 and the rest are published as the competitive team, because a second URL with the same paragraph and a different heading would be a doorway, not a reference. If a parent group is documented as a different entity, the way S8UL is, it can be added later without inventing a founding story.
The creator roster is the other half of the organization. Coverage of its Esports Awards runs names Snax, Payal Gaming, Regaltos and Mamba among its best-known creator faces, alongside the three founder-creators, and the content group has grown from an initial twelve members to more than twenty streamers.
Away from BGMI, the Pokemon UNITE team is S8UL's most decorated competitive side, holding four straight India championship titles from 2023 to 2026, with World Championship appearances in Tokyo in 2023 and again in 2025. The cabinet at organisation level holds the Esports Awards content group honour in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, a four-year run in a category that has only existed since 2022.
